Subject: Discussion of subcommittee charters
I welcome the discussion and hope that the comments below resolve the confusion expressed by some members concerning the roles and purposes of the two subcommittees. I am not willing to restart the balloting process to include an “abstain” option. While it is important that everyone understand what we are doing, this TC has wasted too much time on these sorts of “process” debates in the past and the members have made it very clear to me and Tom that they want to get on with the substantive discussions involved in bringing CourtFiling Blue into existence. I urge members who remain unclear about the proposals to vote “no.” OASIS staff have already created the two new subcommittee lists, based on the existence of majority votes in favor of both charters. Members can self-subscribe to the two new subcommittees, as follows: >> Go to TC members' page (http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/legalxml-courtfiling/index .php). >> Go to relevant subcommittee's member page (listed and linked at bottom of TC member page, under the caption "Subgroups"). >> Use the "Join This Group" link at the top of the subcommittee page. As Don Bergeron just pointed out, under OASIS rules, we must have a subcommittee in order to have a new list. The members present in Las Vegas discussed this at length, including the option to hold the drafting discussions on the main TC list, and opted to create a separate list for the detailed discussions of the Blue specification and schemas, so that discussions would be focused and definitive. The members who participated by phone had no problem with the recommendation concerning the chartering of these two subcommittees. The TC’s intention is for the requirements subcommittee to be a small group of interested, dedicated people finishing up the requirements (although all TC members are eligible to join and participate in the process) and for the Blue Drafting subcommittee to be a committee of the whole – i.e., that every member of the TC will participate as a member of the drafting subcommittee.
